Git error "fatal: 'my_blog_tmp' does not appear to be a git repository"
- by Anthony
Hi, I'm very new to Git and I've been following this online tutorial for converting my existing SVN repository to a Git repository and am stuck at the final hurdle.
http://www.jonmaddox.com/2008/03/05/cleanly-migrate-your-subversion-repository-to-a-git-repository/
On the last step of the tutorial it says to do this:
git clone my_blog_tmp my_blog
However, when I do, I get the following error:
fatal: 'my_blog_tmp' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Some points:
1) I'm entering the above command from within the "my_blog_tmp" directory
2) I've tried entering "git init" to make sure Git is initialised inside the "my_blog_tmp" folder but no joy.
Please help! Thank you :)
